The FTB300 Series of digital paddle wheels are an economical choice for low flow rate applications. They use Infra-red light beam technology. Available connections include 1/8 FNPT, 1/4 FNPT and 3/8" OD tube fittings. Six available flow ranges as low as 30ml/min to 7000 ml/min. No display models have a 5 Vdc current sinking pulse output. Units with displays have a 6-digit LCD, with up to 4 decimal positions that display both flow rate and total. All units include an open collector alarm output.
User selectable scale factors include: flow units, gallons, liters, ounces, and milliliters. Time units include: minutes, hours, days. Users can also program custom units. Programming values and total are stored in the non-volitile memory. The total reset function can also be disabled. Standard units have a clear PVC viewing lens, PVDF chemical resistant lens are available as an option. The enclosure is a weather resistant Valox PBT and rated NEMA 4X (IP56).

Fittings don't fit
The fittings that came with the flow meter did not actually fit. And they only sent one. We have been in contact with Omega for several weeks now trying to fix the issue and it has not been resolved.

Great product
Good and precise flow meter, in addition, should have a hard reset switch, in case of the error

What are the dimensions of the FTB311 Micro-Meter
Thank you for your question.
A file has been sent to your email with dimensions for this part..
Date published: 2019-07-01
Is it applicable for air flow?
Thank you for your inquiry! Unfortunately, these units will not work properly with air flow. They will only work with clean liquids
Date published: 2022-01-26
Do you have a larger unit that can measure ~ 1-10 gal/min?
Thank you for your inquiry about a flow meter. Please compose an email and send to flow@omega.com and can provide options that best fits your application.

For the 300-3000mL/min model, for the square signal output, What is the signal frequency? (How many signals/L)
Thank you for your inquiry, the K-factor for that flow range is 6,646 pulses per Liters.

If using a FTB323D flow meter with a PG-25 (25% propylene glycol) water mixture, is there a need to do any extra calibration to ensure the meter is recording accurately for the fluid type?
Thank you for your inquiry about the low flow meter. Please note that the liquid must clear, not opague and works best with clear liquids based on the infrared sensor to measure the flow.

What are the dimesions of this meter?
Please contact the Flow engineering department with this request and they will send you the details. Please send to flow@omega.com
Date published: 2019-10-18
When this meter totals the volume does it account for reverse flow by subtracting from the volume total so that a tank level can be estimated from flow in and out?
No matter which direction the paddlewheel spins the meter will accumulate a positive total.
Date published: 2019-12-19
Are there replacement grey fittings available for purchase? (The grey circular fittings on either side of the flow meter)
Thank you for your inquiry! Unfortunately, we do not offer the inlet and outlet fittings as a separate accessory for these flow meters
